Very interested in the work that you are doing on Shelagh. Impressive. Keep posting the photos as work progresses also some of the gritty detail from the planking if you have any. My particular interest is that my wife and I jointly own "June", she is a 36ft Silverette also of 1936 vintage. Are there any more out there ?

Well, I know that was in 2010 but I'm asking now. I've found 128 boats built by Silver and only just heard from you that there is a book which was in McLarens. Hope there's one left.
This was a pleasant surprise for me finding SHELAGH in our database. Could I see the SHELAGH sometime?
By the way, I see in the Mercantile Navy List that she was built in 1934, two years earlier than you said!
Quite remarkable. Nearly as old as me.
